What you see there is what's left of my breakfast (some baguette with ricotta, avocado, and sea salt -- crostini, anyone?), my lifeline (tissues), and my constant companion (a steaming cup of chai). I'm down for the count right now and need some serious R&R. Hopefully I'll be better and back in a few days.

Meanwhile, humor me: when you're sick, what are your creature comforts? Are there things you absolutely can't live without? See you in the comments, everyone.
